Blockchains Vs. Plagues
Pandemics bring out the best and worst in humanity. With Covid-19 expected to infect most of the world, we will need to radically shift to working at home and trusting our digital systems as much as we now trust face to face. This will require better digital identity, greater speed and lower latency as well as the greater trust and immutable record that blockchains can provide. Lightman will summarise progress, predict the year ahead and offer policy and technology recommendations.

How can blockchain transform the FMCG Industry?
The value that the blockchain can add to the FMCG industry has yet to be fully unlocked. Tracking financial transactions with blockchain can improve the growth of this industry sector. Provenance proven by blockchain can enable consumers the opportunity to regain trust in products, giving the brand a new competitive edge. The quicker FMCG companies tap into the capabilities of blockchain and start deploying, the faster they guarantee their market shares and growth in the Digital Ecosystem.

Blockchain Goes Global
It could be argued that blockchain is boring and useless. It is just one of many databases and is not yet very good or very fast or very scalable, however what it does, it does very well. Where authenticity is critical, blockchain will become transformative, which gets you to things like global clearance, the global supply chain, health care, and aerospace. How will we get there? We think it will take an open model to build out the protocols and will require ‘coopetition’ between and across industries, and around the world.
